I would prefer to display information like the addresses of request_queue
as far as we can.  No statistics, but still we will often want to see the
structures.

So for example:

crash> dev -d
MAJOR GENDISK            NAME       REQUEST_QUEUE      TOTAL ASYNC  SYNC 
    8 ffff92bbd102e400   sdb        ffff92bbf04e3678    (not supported)
    8 ffff92bbd1014400   sdc        ffff92bbf04e26e8       0     0     0
...
crash> request_queue ffff92bbf04e3678 | head -n 3
struct request_queue {
  last_merge = 0x0,
  elevator = 0xffff92bbc449b000,

Is this possible?

Thanks,
Kazu
